In my opinion, “The Long Way Home” is the best so far in Terri’s career. If you can’t see her in the US in 2010, start sending in now for your passports, to see her in Canada. It will be worth the trip. I know from experience. Hang in…she’s just gettin warmed up.

I loved her debut album and I still listen to it quite often! I’m sad that she’ll be focusing more on Canadian radio than here in the states but I do hope we’ll be able to get her music online.

Wed, 12 Nov 2008 03:04:49 +0000http://www.countryuniverse.net/?p=2131#comment-17299I too hope this means she gets to make the music she wants to make. I know I love Chely more now than during her mainstream days. I do wish they could garner some radio play though…

So what is the Reba news? I’m a huge fan and somehow I missed that bit of info…now y’all have got me nervous.

Wed, 12 Nov 2008 01:54:13 +0000http://www.countryuniverse.net/?p=2131#comment-17294This is really sad news to me. It feels like country music is losing one of its greatest performers. And I think that if she decides to focus more on Canadian radio success (which she always had better luck at than U.S. radio), then she will ultimately stop touring the U.S. too.

I hope Matt B. is right and she finds a Nashville label to release more music here in the States. But if not, we’ll miss you, Terri.

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 21:56:02 +0000http://www.countryuniverse.net/?p=2131#comment-17277This announcement stands in stark contrast to Reba’s news. McEntire, one of the greatest superstars ever in the genre, is in her mid-50s. Yet, she must believe that she can meet the current market demands and be a force at country radio.

On the other hand, Clark, who just turned 40, apparently feels that making music to suit the mainstream audience is a futile exercise. Although I’m disappointed that artists such as Tillis, Yearwood and Loveless fell out of favor on country radio, I feel their careers were ultimately fulfilled. After significant commercial success, they have navigated the indie route

The shelf life of female artists is now so much shorter. Singers like Deana Carter, Chely Wright and Clark, at different stages of the game, have all run into too much resistance and fled the “Nashville scene.” All three deserved a warmer reception from the industry, in my opinion. While their creative muses seem satisfied, these shortcomings are disappointing.

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 21:54:54 +0000http://www.countryuniverse.net/?p=2131#comment-17276Wait, I’m confused. Is she still making music, but she’s just not interested in the US mainstream country market?

If so, I’m happy because then she’ll make more stellar albums like Fearless.

She did say she would focus her attention in Canada which could benefit me but’ll leave out all her U.S. fans…

I don’t see why BNA didn’t release My Next Life back when “In My Next Life” was charting since they released Sarah Johns’ album despite her charting lower, and not having a built in fanbase…that’s one of the reason’s I dislike nashville labels…(Big Machine did something similar with Dusty Drake and Jimmy Wayne)

Also just to edit the post “She Didn’t Have Time” was made while she was still with Mercury.
